Biography:
Mando Diao are a rock band from Borlänge, Sweden. According to the band, the name Mando Diao has no meaning at all, but rather appeared to band member Björn Dixgård in a dream. Their sound is influenced by The Animals and Oasis.
The roots of Mando Diao date back to 1995 when Björn Dixgård was a member of a band called Butler. Band members came and went; four years later, the remaining line-up chose to proceed more seriously in their musical efforts.

Ode to Ochrasy
Amsterdam
standard tuninge, no capo
Intro: Dm C Dm C
Verse:
Dm
I was down in Amsterdam
Almost hurt myself to death
C
I pushed myself so hard
Dm
Just like the redlight girls
Dm
Well I cried and stopped to smile
I thought that my career was over
C Dm
And the dealer boys they had to bring me water
F Dm
I stumbled over mountains
F Dm
And the shadows of the street
F Dm
I fell into the river
A
I cried and and begged for mercy
And i talked to god on the telephone
Chorus
Bb C
But I really can't tell you what he told me
Dm
But it was a lie
Bb C
No I really can't tell you what he told me
Dm
But it was a lie
Verse:
Dm
When I came to in Amsterdam
The hotel showed a movie
C Dm
With Marlon Brando and his friend Pacino
Dm
Well I thought that this is nice
And I'm sure I can relax now
C Dm
But suddenly the room was full of demons
F Dm
I escaped through the window
F Dm
Almost ran a mile away
F Dm
I had nowhere to go
A
So I cried and and begged for mercy
And I talked to god on the telephone
Chorus
Bb C
But I really can't tell you what he told me
Dm
But it was a lie
Bb C
No I really can't tell you what he told me
Dm
But it was a lie
Solo:
change between Dm and F, start on Dm, and as the solo ends, the last Dm changes to D7
Bridge
Bb
But nothing seems to matter
Dm
In this lonesome dirty town
A
But for a short brief moment
Dm D7
I thought she was the one
Bb
And she and I were fighting
Dm
About sex, love and TV
A
That's why I had to get down and talk
To god on the telephone
Chorus
Bb C
But I really can't tell you what he told me
Dm
But it was a lie
Bb C
No I really can't tell you what he told me
Dm
But it was a lie
take it easy
